A new K-pop boy group formed from survival show alumni is already gaining traction — not for its music yet, but for its visuals.

Rookie group AND2BLE, featuring former members of ZEROBASEONE and EVNNE, is drawing attention ahead of its debut after releasing a series of concept photos that fans say show “perfect visual synergy.”

The five-member group — Zhang Hao, Yoo Seungeon, Ricky, Kim Gyuvin and Han Yujin — unveiled unit photos, four-cut photo booth shots and ID-style portraits through official channels on April 9.

In the unit images, the members showcased a cohesive, polished look, emphasizing what fans described as a “golden balance” as a team. Dressed in soft knits and refined shirts, the group projected a classic, almost editorial aesthetic, reminiscent of fashion campaign visuals.

A contrasting mood emerged in the four-cut photos, where the members displayed a more playful and relaxed side. Their casual poses highlighted the group chemistry, offering a glimpse into their offstage dynamic and reinforcing a sense of closeness even before their official debut.

The ID-style portraits further spotlighted each member’s individual appeal while also emphasizing their combined visual harmony — a key talking point among fans online, where the images have been widely shared.

The group has attracted particular attention due to its lineup. Four members — Zhang Hao, Ricky, Kim Gyuvin and Han Yujin — rose to fame through Mnet’s audition program “Boys Planet” as part of ZEROBASEONE, while Yoo Seungeon previously debuted with EVNNE.

AND2BLE marks the first boy group in four years from YH Entertainment. The group name combines “AND” and “DOUBLE,” symbolizing layered identities and the expansion of individuality beyond a single image.

With visual content rolling out across social media, AND2BLE is building early momentum ahead of its official debut on May 26, with fans already watching closely to see whether the group’s predebut buzz will translate into chart success.
